Author Topic: so my gpu does this  (Read 2087 times)

then point the fan away from the gratings

my 7850 got up to about 80 celsius max while playing bioshock infinite on max, plus it's overclocked, with stock cooler.
maybe you need to clean your fan and heatsink

My computer overheats quite easily too.  I have it on a single-rotor cooling pad AND have a fan blowing into the side and it still gets really hot.

you can literally boil water on that thing

holy stuff.

after about 7+ hours, i get short lasting burn marks on my legs with my laptop. Yes, im sure they are little burns, not laptop marks.
If it is an HP laptop, then that is just how they are unfortunately.

I have a GTX 670 FTW+ and its thermal limit is 94-98 Celsius. Your gpu is being damaged when it gets that hot, hell I don't see how the thing is still working for you. Open up your case and clean dust out of your case and gpu with a can of compressed air.

Do this. If that fails get new cooling. My old GPU went up to like 70c but when I cleaned it from dust and all it went to around 33c

My GPU will crash with blue stripes on the screen or something or whatever color is most prominent in the screen i'm browsing. It won't crash if I'm playing something graphically intensive like a videogame.

Never had these problems before, though its no wonder why its getting so hot if you're placing a fan so it blows air on the heat exhaust gratings. That's keeping the hot air already inside from escaping like it's supposed to.

bro a new fan is like 10 bucks hit up radio shack or something damn

The GeForce 9500 G# had relatively bad cooling to begin with. Add in age, and you've got a recipe for disaster.
Buy a new video card.

holy

My motherboard right now is 127 °C
is this normal?

Dang mine no loger gets above 40°C.
And I tought mine got hot

you can literally boil water on that thing

spit on it, it'll all sizzle away

christ...

holy

...what.

How hot does it get when you don't have an exterior fan blowing into it? that can cause problems.
